WORD OF GOD
THE PARABLE OF THE
SOWER
Matthew 13:1-9

1
That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the
lake. 2 Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into
a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the
shore. 3 Then he told them many things in parables, saying: “A
farmer went out to sow his seed. 4 As he was scattering the
seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it
up. 5 Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil.
It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6 But when
the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered
because they had no root. 7 Other seed fell among thorns,
which grew up and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on
good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty
times what was sown. 9 Whoever has ears, let them hear.”

THE FOUNDATION OF THE CHURCH

The Church – A plan Born in the Father’s Heart

wisdom and goodness, created the whole universe and wiled to raise men
up to share in His own divine life to which He calls all men in His Son.

The Church-Instituted by Jesus Christ


In accomplishing the Father’s plan of salvation, Jesus instituted
the Church. Through His actions during his earthly ministry,
Jesus laid down the foundation of the Church.

The Church-Revealed by the Holy Spirit


The Spirit is the gift of God to all who believe and are baptized.
He was sent on the day of Pentecost in order that He might continually
sanctify the Church.
